My first day of exercise...

Ok, so I go to the local walking track near my house, expecting a few ppl, but it was super crowded.  I put in my skull candy's and start walking...I am doing great, no hard breathing or anything...or so I thought.  After walking at a fast pace for about 10 mins, the song stops and I can hear myself breathing like a smoker...lol.  People around me were probably wondering if I was gonna make it to my car...I continued for another 10 mins and walked back to my car...laughing and gasping for breath at the same time.  I couldn't hear myself breath but everyone around me could hear me.  Anyway, I am leaving you with a few good tips to diet/exercise.

1. to help with the munchies, buy a strong flavored gum.  I like Stride Cool Peppermint.  It keeps your mouth feeling minty fresh and causes you not to mess it up with snack foods.  If you must snack, reach for something such as pretzels or a small cup of FF yogurt.

2. when walking, bring along some tunes.  I start off with upbeat, fast songs such as "Goodbye to You" by The Veronicas, and I end with something slower like "Down" by Jason Walker

I will be posting random tips and adventures throughout my journey so keep a look out!  Have a great day!!
